About Lesley

Lesley Kwiatkowski first opened the doors of her business, Dermagraphics at Lesley's, on April 2, 1999. It was the beginning of a Manitoba-made company that would become and remain a constant pioneer in the beauty industry. Dermagraphics at Lesley's is often the first to bring many innovative, state-of-the-art cosmetic technology and procedures to Manitoba and has many groundbreaking initiatives and goals in mind for the future.

Lesley was one of the first people in Manitoba to offer permanent makeup, a revolutionary method of applying micro-insertions of natural
pigments into the dermal layer of the skin. To this day, she remains the
most qualified and experienced permanent makeup artist in the province with certification to teach as well as a masters degree from the American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics.
